Sometimes with Antiques I find the imperfect makes something more appealing - Now I love an object in exquisite condition as much as the next dealer - but sometimes the little alterations carefully (or not so carefully) done are what draws the eye and tells you something of the objects history. This little s***f box was likely made in the early 19th century using elements produced in the Canton region of China. The panels are made of mother of pearl - a common export from the region during this period as Chinese designs became extremely popular for gambling counters for example. The Chinese had decorative motifs etched into the shell producing some beautiful and intriguing designs. It became very fashionable to own mother of pearl objects, then as today reflecting one’s sophistication owning new exports from abroad and luxury. This example would have been a more affordable version of pieces produced for wealthy patrons. Earlier pieces engraved with historical scenes or with lids inset with interesting painting can fetch thousands of pounds. This little piece is mounted in gilt coloured metal but the lid has been repaired and mounted in a silvered metal as a later date. I imagine that the owner wanted to keep the piece in use as a trinket box and a s***f box no more. The lid is engraved with the initials MG - for sale soon
